Preferred Qualifications: To excel in roles within Drug Safety, candidates should hold an associate degree for entry-level data entry positions, while a bachelor’s or master’s degree in various science-related fields is highly recommended for more advanced roles. Eligible majors for enrollment span a diverse spectrum of disciplines, including Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Public Health, Chemistry, Pharmacology, Pharmaceutical Chemistry for Drug Safety Associate roles, and Medical Reviewer or Drug Safety Physician positions.
Drug Safety Associates (DSAs), Coordinators, and Specialists are essential to maintaining public health and regulatory compliance by overseeing drug safety activities throughout the lifecycle of pharmaceutical products—from clinical trials to post-marketing surveillance. The DSAI program is strategically designed to prepare learners for these roles by offering hands-on training in core pharmacovigilance functions, enhanced through artificial intelligence tools that are increasingly used in modern safety operations.
Through this program, students build practical, job-ready skills in the following areas:
Medical Record Review and Case Intake: Learn to evaluate patient histories and medical documents to identify reportable safety events and construct initial case entries.
Adverse Event Identification, Processing, and Follow-up: Gain expertise in identifying serious and non-serious adverse events (AEs and SAEs), processing them using standardized workflows, and performing required follow-ups with clinical sites and healthcare providers.
MedDRA Coding and Causality Assessments: Master the use of MedDRA (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities) for accurate event classification and apply causality algorithms to determine drug-event relationships.
CIOMS, PSUR, and Signal Detection Techniques: Generate CIOMS reports, periodic safety update reports (PSURs), and utilize AI-enabled signal detection tools to recognize emerging drug safety concerns across patient populations.
SAE Reconciliation and Case Narrative Development: Learn to reconcile discrepancies between clinical trial databases and safety systems and draft comprehensive case narratives for regulatory submission.
AI-Supported Data Triage and Quality Reviews: Utilize AI for prioritizing incoming cases, flagging high-risk signals, and performing automated quality checks to improve efficiency and compliance.
Real-World Evidence (RWE) and Post-Market Surveillance:Explore post-marketing drug safety strategies, including monitoring data from electronic health records (EHRs), patient registries, and spontaneous reporting systems to ensure ongoing safety after product launch.
Throughout the program, students engage with real-world case scenarios, guided simulations, and standardized reporting templates that mirror current industry practices. By integrating AI-based automation tools with human judgment, learners develop a hybrid skill set that is in high demand across global pharmacovigilance teams
Graduates of the Drug Safety Operations in AI Environment program are well-positioned to apply for a range of entry- to mid-level roles across pharmaceutical companies, clinical research organizations (CROs), biotech firms, and regulatory service providers. Common job titles include
